Minted Denver, CO.
MoreA "D" on any coin minted since 1906 means it was minted in Denver, Colorado.Other mint marks you may see are:
"P": Philadelphia (but current Philadelphia pennies, and Philadelphia coins before 1980 except wartime nickels, don't have mint marks, so it gets confusing)
"S": San Francisco (on older coins and modern proof sets)
Coins minted over 100 years ago may also have an "O" for New Orleans, "CC" for Carson City, and very old gold coins may have a D or C on them but you won't find any of them in change!

What does the S mean on the back of a 1945 nickel?
It is the mintmark for the San Francisco Mint. You may also find a D for Denver or a P for Philadelphia. During WWII the nickel's composition was changed because nickel metal was needed for the war effort. To indicate the change, the Mint made the mint mark larger and moved it from the then-standard position at the right of Monticello. In addition, the letter "P" was used for Philadelphia coins for the first time.

What is the value of a 1945 buffalo nickel?
Please check again and post a new question. Buffalo nickels were struck from 1913 to 1938. Any nickel dated 1945 would be a familiar Jefferson nickel, but made from a special alloy used during wartime.
